Dean Holden says the love for his time in management at Bristol City was the main reason for wanting to continue his career in the dugout.
The 43-year-old was confirmed as Charlton's new head coach on Tuesday, his first permanent job back in management since leaving the Robins in February 2021.
Holden would then become Michael O'Neill's assistant manager at Stoke City from April 2021 until the latter's sacking in August. He would take charge of the Potters on an interim basis for one game, which they won, before leaving his post when Alex Neil came in.
